I recall before I left home (1980), I wanted to get an AHM Y6B and number it 394. My phone number would have been the locomotive. Mom still has the number.

Until the break-up of AT&T and Bell South started messing around with area codes, I was also thinking that if I put a "canteen" (southern RR) water tank car in front of the Y6, I would have the area code also - 404-394-2882. Mom has a different area code now.
